Bernie just doesn't get it. I just hope that by the time I can take my son to a race (he's almost 2 y.o) there will be an NA race again.

Did they add a different location? I was looking at the calendar on the F1 site yesterday and IIRC, there were 19 races. There's still 19 races but not sure Canada got bumped for a different site.

EDIT: Nevermind, they just switched around the races on the F1 site and didn't change the numbers. Lazy bastards.

Oh well. I was talking to some Metro people the other day and thinking about Montreal.

Now I'll have to go to Brazil again, or plan on a trip to Europe.
